Mark Consuelos Makes ‘Live' Producer Michael Gelman Cry During On-Air Segment
With a backstage producer at Live with Kelly & Mark, it turns out said sporting event takes the form of the famed New York City Marathon, as humorously revealed by Mark Consuelos during a recent episode of the show.
During Tuesday's episode of Live, the 54-year-old Consuelos offered up a scientific breakdown of why certain individuals (participants and spectators alike) tend to well up during the New York City Marathon.
"I don't know, I'd be crying after the beginning, the first quarter, the half," Consuelos quipped. He then turned his attention to Live producer Michael Gelman, who the former All My Children actor quoted as saying "he often cries watching them."
As the camera jumped to Gelman, the television producer responded by confirming he does indeed tend to cry during the final stretch of the Marathon, saying, "I get very emotional at the end."
"And I'm saying, you need to get your testosterone checked," Consuelos joked.
Further elaborating on his answer, Gelman went to say, "It's very moving, that these people have gone through that. Sometimes they're disabled, sometimes they're crawling, but even sometimes they just went through so much and they're stumbling across the finish line, it's such an achievement."
Studying Gelman's face as he said this, Consuelos promptly pointed out, "He's crying right now. You're welling up right now, get a close-up on Gelman's misty eyes."
"You could be an actor, maybe," Consuelos continued with a laugh. "A soap opera actor. Summon up the tears!"
Seizing upon the moment, Gelman clapped back with saying he was unsure whether he's "an actor or psychopath," triggering a flurry of laughs from the audiences and both Consuelos and co-host Kelly Ripa.

Travis Kelce Posted a Rare Reply to a Taylor Swift Comment That Went Viral
THE RUNDOWN On Thursday, Travis Kelce posted a rare reply to an online comment about his girlfriend, Taylor Swift. The NFL star was apparently watching musical artist Jelly Roll on ESPN's The Pat McAfee Show, where the singer was shouting out his own favorite artists. He suggested Morgan Wallen and Post Malone, before thinking of Swift. But then he couldn't stop gushing. 'She's the GOAT!' Jelly Roll insisted. 'I will fistfight anybody who says otherwise. Travis, don't even worry I got this one. You know what I mean? She's the GOAT.' Kelce commented on McAfee's Instagram post of the moment, writing, 'my dawg is the realest!!' adding some laughing and high-five emojis for emphasis. The comment has already garnered over 3,000 likes as fans seem to agree. Swift and Kelce have been enjoying some downtime together ahead of training camp for his team, the Kansas City Chiefs. The football player had a spring and summer break following the team's loss at the Super Bowl in February. Swift wrapped up her Eras Tour in December. The couple has been spotted in New York City, Florida, and Tennessee during the last few months. A source told People in April, 'They have been traveling nonstop and very much enjoy it. They are making the most of their time off together. They are hanging out with friends, too. It's a special time for them.' The source added that the couple is 'very serious and in sync.' 'They value the same things,' the source said. 'Right now, the focus is very much on private time out of the spotlight.'

Shelter Kitten Watched Siblings Get Adopted—Days Later, Everything Changed
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. After adopting two kittens from a local rescue, a couple couldn't stop thinking about the one sibling left behind, so they immediately went back for him. A viral Reddit post shared on Wednesday under the username u/EvergreenHulk, shows the newest addition to the couple's home, a small tabby kitten with big green eyes. The caption says: "We left him at the shelter Friday when we adopted his brothers. We returned and brought Loki home today." The poster, Mark, told Newsweek that they were a four-cat home until they lost their 14-year-old girl Max in April 2024, and then her brother Baloo at 16 years old in May 2025, so he and his wife decided it was time to rescue some new kitties. "Last week, my wife saw a Facebook post from the Friends of Montcalm County Animal Control. They had three male kittens left from a litter of five to adopt. She wanted to go see a kitten, and, at our appointment on Friday, we agreed we were going to adopt Sprite," Mark said. However, while the couple were meeting the kitten, his brother kept demanding attention from the poster's wife and climbing on her leg, so they also adopted Frodo and became a four-cat house again. "Almost immediately, we regretted leaving one kitten behind. We discussed that, if no one had adopted him in two weeks, we would reach out again. But we are such softies for kitties that we barely made it through the weekend," Mark said. "My wife called the shelter again on Monday and made an appointment to pick up the last kitten Tuesday after work. As soon as he got back with his brothers, it was like they had never been separated," Mark added. "They have been snuggling, playing, and wrestling for the last day. It's been a blast to see them all back together. Our biggest regret is making him be all alone for those four days." Adopting animals from shelters has never been more important. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) says that almost 3 million homeless cats entered U.S. shelters in 2024, and, of those, only 2.2 were adopted. About 362,000 were returned to their owner or the field, and, of those left, 369,000 were transferred to other organizations, and another 273,000 were euthanized. Animals in shelter are often euthanized for lack of space, because intake numbers are higher than available spots. Adopting an animal from a shelter will not only save their life, but will also make space to host another homeless pet, which may otherwise be euthanized. The newest member of the family, Loki, rests on a towel.

One user, AffectionateMemory82, commented: "No kittens left behind! I love this. Congratulations Loki and your brothers! Is one of them named Thor by chance?" RolandLWN posted: "I did that, and went back twice until I'd adopted the entire litter of five. I started out adopting two, then felt bad about their two siblings left behind so I went back for another two. "Then a month later someone returned the fifth one who had been adopted before I adopted the two sets. I was thrilled to be able to go and get her and bring her home to her four siblings! And she knew them immediately!" Do you have funny and adorable videos or pictures of your pet you want to share?

Birds get their bling! Philadelphia Eagles receive Super Bowl LIX rings
Months after their dominating win in Super Bowl LIX, the reigning world champions of professional football, the Philadelphia Eagles, gathered together at Ballers at The Battery to receive their Super Bowl rings Friday night. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, the architect of the roster, executive vice president and general manager Howie Roseman, and head coach Nick Sirianni were all joined by their wives as they got dressed up to differing degrees and walked the green carpet. The players seemed to be much more eager than the team's brass to show off their best attire for the evening. Players are set to report to training camp on Tuesday, and their first practice will be on Wednesday. So it's fitting in a way that they get their rings on Friday, celebrate their achievement once more, and then close that chapter as they begin their title defense. "We want a ring that tells a story and ... it can't just be beautiful in design," said Jason Arasheben, owner and operator of Jason of Beverly Hills, "it has to be robust in storyline, as far as telling the story of the season, the team, the city and the fans. So a lot goes into designing a ring of this caliber." Arasheben said they've done 16 championship rings across all four major sports, and still described the Birds' new bling as "the greatest championship ring in Super Bowl history." "We try to outdo each other with every championship ring, and with this being our latest championship ring, we feel like this is hands-down the greatest championship ring in history," he said. Arasheben said with this specific ring, they're proud to introduce something that has never been done. "When you see this ring, you'll understand exactly what I'm talking about," he said. The Eagles shared a breakdown of all the intricacies the ring showcases that pay homage to the team's season and Super Bowl LIX MacAulay contributed to this report.
